Bobby Portis - Will come off bench Portis will come off the bench Tuesday against the Bulls, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.
Impact Brook Lopez returned to the starting lineup during Giannis Antetokounmpo's recent absence, but he'll end up staying there while Portis shifts back to the bench -- the role he'll presumably occupy for the remainder of the season. Portis' workload and usage may take a slight dip, but he'll still be a key piece of the Bucks' gameplan.

Giannis Antetokounmpo - Playing vs. Bulls Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Bulls, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Impact As expected, Antetokounmpo will be back in the lineup following a one-game absence due to right knee soreness. This month, he's averaged 32.5 points, 12.3 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in 34.0 minutes.

Giannis Antetokounmpo - Probable Tuesday Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Antetokounmpo missed Saturday's game against the Timberwolves due to knee soreness, but it appears likely that he'll be back in action Tuesday. Across his last five appearances, he's averaged 35.8 points, 10.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 33.6 minutes per game.

Khris Middleton - Won't play Tuesday Middleton (wrist) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Bulls.
Impact Middleton scored just 15 points -- his fewest since Feb. 5 -- during Saturday's loss to the Timberwolves and presumably picked up a wrist injury that'll keep him sidelined for at least one game. In his absence, Wesley Matthews, Jordan Nwora and Pat Connaughton are all candidates for increased roles.

Bucks 119 - Timberwolves 138 ' Pat Connaughton Returns ' 3.19.22
MARCH 20, 2022 • YOUTUBE
Pat Connaughton - Drains five threes in return Connaughton totaled 15 points (5-11 FG, 5-11 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 138-119 loss to Minnesota.
Impact The 29-year-old wing hadn't played since Feb. 10 due to a finger injury, but with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) sidelined, it was an opportune time for Connaughton to make his return. He was having the best season of his career from beyond the arc prior to getting hurt, averaging 2.3 made threes a game and draining 40.7 percent of his long-range attempts, so Saturday's shooting success is a strong sign he's fully recovered from his injury.
MARCH 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Brook Lopez - Drops 15 in Saturday's start Lopez provided 15 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 20 minutes during Saturday's 138-119 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Moving into the starting five with Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) out of action, Lopez saw his biggest workload in three games since he returned to the lineup from the back woes that had kept him out since opening night. The veteran center figures to provide a big boost for the Bucks down the stretch, but expect his minutes to remain limited, at least until the playoffs begin.

Khris Middleton - Can't carry load Saturday Middleton ended Saturday's 138-119 loss to the Timberwolves with 15 points (6-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal in 26 minutes.
Impact With Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) sidelined, the Bucks needed someone to step up, but instead Middleton was one of three Milwaukee players to tie for the team lead in scoring, with his 15 points representing his lowest output since Feb. 5. He's still scored in double digits in 19 straight, and Middleton's headed for his third straight season, and the fourth of his career, averaging better than 20 points a game.

Minnesota’s Patrick Beverley and Milwaukee’s George Hill were both ejected in the first quarter of a matchup between the surging Timberwolves and the defending champion BucksMARCH 19, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
George Hill - Ejected Saturday Hill was ejected from Saturday's game against Minnesota in the first quarter after being assessed a technical foul, Jace Frederick of St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Impact Hill pushed Patrick Beverley in the back late in the first quarter, and both players were ejected from the matchup. Prior to his departure, Hill recorded a steal in four minutes off the bench. As long as he doesn't face further discipline for Saturday's incident, the 34-year-old should be back in action Tuesday against Chicago.
